I follow some big accounts too and do comment on interesting posts, but these days I rarely do so. I find it more interesting to interact with people who truly want to engage.
Those new accounts that post four or five times a day are hard to want to follow, because it's not generally all that meaningful writing. I agree though that they shouldn't just down vote they should try to educate them first. Many are clueless and at first think the more I post the more I can earn.
Downvoting will just drive people away from Hive, educate them and they might become a great resource for the community down the line. My opinion anyway!
